Chapter 842: One Ultimate Move for Seven Kills, Game Over?!
Chapter 843: Human Body Star
Luckily, as Xia Feng was on tenterhooks, and everyone else was on edge, the countdown on the central high pedestal completed. No one bid.
It seemed that in the third round, everyone was studying the Blazing Sun Divine Domain, and their funds were indeed tight. Apart from the Black Moon Pope and Jin Shiyin, no one had over two hundred.
Of course, it was also possible that they had spent everything during the exchange phase and hadn’t expected such a game-breaking item card to appear in the auction.
[Level 3 Item Card: Realm Demise – This round is passed over and automatically enters the next auction stage.]
However, what puzzled everyone even more was Uphiel’s failure to bid.
They looked towards high pedestal number 4. Uphiel was hidden in the shadows, and only a birdman silhouette with drooping wings could be vaguely seen.
Logically speaking, after Uphiel had been searching the Ash Land in the third round, no matter how bad his luck, he should have accumulated more than two hundred Ash Stones.
Could it be that he had formed some sort of alliance with player number 9 and had a different plan?
They then looked at high pedestal number 9. The Spade Person was also hidden in the shadows, and only a blurred figure could be vaguely seen. He hadn’t made a bid from the beginning to the end.
What were these two up to? Everyone was confused.
But it was for the best. If Uphiel didn’t bid, then they in the Blood Thunder Heavenly Sea would be safe.
Otherwise, this Sumeru War would truly end prematurely.
[Entering the fourth sub-stage: Designate the Red King!]
[All players’ speaking permissions are now open!]
But after a few seconds, no one spoke, and they remained silent.
“Since no one has anything to say, let’s end this round,” Jin Yangtian knocked on the table and said indifferently, “Let’s proceed directly to the next round.”
Brilliant light lit up in front of the Spade Person, and a hoarse, faint voice came from under the mask: “Everyone should have seen that three people successfully guessed the Red King. I’ll be blunt, these three are myself, Uphiel, and Jin Yangtian.”
Jin Yangtian’s hawk-like eyes suddenly shot over, filled with cold killing intent. Jin Shiyin also frowned almost imperceptibly, his gaze casually falling over, a mocking light laugh escaping him, “Oh? It seems our little friend Venerable One has his own opinions.”
“Jin Shiyin, stop pretending,” the Spade Person’s mask turned, and he said indifferently, “You are the Red King, and Jin Yangtian is your ally. The two of you are colluding to frame Uphiel. I have already helped Angel Right Wing recover his memory on this matter.”
For the next minute, Xia Feng concealed some of his secrets and explained Jin and Jin’s plan concisely.
Jin Shiyin’s careless smile gradually faded. Although he had prepared for his identity to be revealed when he saw that a total of three people had guessed his identity,
Being so accurately deduced by the Spade Person still made his scalp tingle. This Spade Person, like a rat in a drain, where did he get so much crucial information from!
The Spade Person not only stole the Authority Fragment but also revealed his identity to everyone. He was practically seeking death! Jin Shiyin suppressed his anger and closed his eyes.
He didn’t offer any further explanations and couldn’t be bothered to keep up the act of being an unidentified player.
After all, the Spade Person’s logic was complete, and with Uphiel as a key witness nodding in agreement,
No one would believe him even if he insisted he wasn’t the Red King.
“Heh~ Seat Jin, you played a good hand of framing and slandering,” Ms. Mi’s lower jaw curved, a hint of hidden venom in her gentle tone, and she said coldly, “You really tricked me! I truly cast my vote for Uphiel before, and I missed out on a large sum of Ash Stones, heh heh~”
It had to be said that Jin Shiyin’s move had indeed fooled many people. Almost everyone had guessed that Uphiel was the Red King. Most importantly, Uphiel had left the main group in the third round and wasn’t even competing for the Blazing Sun Divine Domain, instead searching for Ash Lands and Ash Stones everywhere. This behavior logic perfectly matched the Red King’s desire to quickly accumulate Ash Stones and end the game early.
Unfortunately, Uphiel was just a smokescreen.
Even Jin Yangtian was supposed to be part of this smokescreen, preparing to take the heat after everyone realized Uphiel wasn’t the Red King, drawing all suspicion onto himself.
But the Spade Person’s act of helping Uphiel recover his memory, which led to the deduction of the complete framing plan, had caused the entire scheme to collapse.
Once the settlement phase ended and they returned to the Sumeru Realm, Jin Shiyin would become the target of a united attack.
If his identity had been exposed at any other time, it would have been fine. But it was exposed precisely when everyone was gathered in one place, plunging him into a desperate situation.
Jin Shiyin’s expression gradually turned grim. He could no longer maintain his lazy and relaxed state. He looked at the hawk-helmeted man on high pedestal number 2 and sent a telepathic message:
“Jin Yangtian, as agreed, you need to help me break through in this situation. Is that still valid?”
Jin Yangtian’s expression was devoid of joy or sorrow. He nodded indifferently.
“Since Jin Yangtian is Seat Jin’s helper and has no intention of claiming the Sumeru Throne,” the Black Moon Pope suddenly spoke, “Therefore, instead of designating Jin Shiyin, it would be better to designate Jin Yangtian and make him return to the Sumeru Realm three minutes later. What do you all think?”
“…”
The old Black Moon Man!!
A fierce glint rose in Jin Shiyin’s eyes. Just you wait, do you really think I can’t escape?!
Once I escape to safety, the Spade Person will be first in line, and you old thing will be second! You will all die!
Seeing that everyone was starting to target Jin Yangtian and Jin Shiyin, Xia Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This way, it would be even more perfect. Jin Yangtian wouldn’t even be able to return to the Sumeru Realm, let alone compete for the Blazing Sun Divine Domain.
At the same time, Miss Mu’s learning speed was like riding a rocket. Synchronized information flashed across Xia Feng’s mind at millisecond intervals, continuously forcing knowledge into his brain, making his soul swell and yet inexplicably feel refreshed.
[Mu Qingtong observes the overall situation. In 3 milliseconds, she completes learning the first ‘Human Body Ash Point Crystalized Structure’ – 0.1%]
[After 1 second, she comprehends ‘Stellar Fusion Configuration’ – 0.2%]
[After 3 seconds, she comprehends ‘Stellar Fission Configuration’ – 0.3%]
[After 3 minutes, Mu Qingtong successfully constructs the first ‘Human Body Star Ash Point’ – 1%]
Human Body Star? This thing sounds incredibly powerful, Xia Feng thought with anticipation.
[After 10 minutes, Mu Qingtong successfully constructs the second ‘Human Body Star Ash Point’ – 1.001%]
Miss Mu’s comprehension seemed to have stalled, encountering difficulties.
But it didn’t matter. Since she had already learned the Yang Ling basic matrix, the subsequent learning progress could be slower.
There were no further surprises. Everyone lowered their heads and operated their panels, casting their votes.
[Designation of the Red King phase ended!]
Xia Feng telepathically transmitted: “Miss Mu, those guys are coming back. You are too close to them, be careful and hide, don’t let them discover your existence.”
[2 – 1 -]
Xia Feng’s vision went black, then bright. His clone was hiding in the cliffs far from the canyon. Looking up, he could see the movements of the Sacred Realm figures in the distance.
Huang Zhaoyue’s Dragon Mirror Azure Pool shattered, and the world returned to color from black, white, and gray.
Beside the pillar of light reaching the heavens, Jin Shiyin stepped on clouds of blood mist and turned to run!
